AIR QUALITY
PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS The Department has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State Operating Permit and Title V Operating Permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for the Department, the regulated community and the general public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to submit permitting documents relevant to its application for all sources related to a facility or a proposed project, affords an opportunity for public input, and provides for a decision on the issuance of the necessary permits.
The Department received applications for Plan Approvals or Operating Permits from the following facilities.
Copies of the application, the Department's analysis, all pertinent documents used in the evaluation of the application and subsequently prepared proposed plan approvals/operating permits are available for public review during normal business hours at the appropriate Department Regional Office. Appointments for scheduling a review must be made by calling the appropriate Department Regional Office. The address and phone number of the Regional Office is listed before the application notices.
Persons wishing to file a written protest or provide comments or additional information, which they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of a permit, may submit the information to the Department's Regional Office. A 30-day comment period from the date of this publication will exist for the submission of comments, protests and information. Each submission must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed Plan Approval/Operating Permit including the permit number and a concise statement regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to issuance of the permit.
A person wishing to request a hearing may do so during the 30-day comment period. A public hearing may be held, if the Department, in its discretion, decides that a hearing is warranted based on the information received. Persons submitting comments or requesting a hearing will be notified of the decision to hold a hearing by publication in the newspaper, the Pennsylvania Bulletin or by telephone, when the Department determines this type of notification is sufficient. Requests for a public hearing and any relevant information should be directed to the appropriate Department Regional Office.
Permits issued to the owners or operators of sources subject to 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter D or E, or located within a Title V facility or subject to 25 Pa. Code § 129.51(a) or permits issued for sources with limitations on their potential to emit used to avoid otherwise applicable Federal requirements may be submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency for review and approval as a revision to the State Implementation Plan. Final Plan Approvals and Operating Permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the sources are constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001—4015), 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121—145, the Federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 7401—7671q) and regulations adopted under the Federal Clean Air Act.
Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the regional office listed before the application. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

Notice is hereby given in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44(b) and 127.424(b), that the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) intends to issue a Plan Approval # 39-00006B to American Craft Brewery, 7880 Penn Drive, Breinigsville, PA 18031-1508, for their plant located in Upper Macungie Township, Lehigh County. The facility currently has Title V Permit No. 39-00006. This plan approval will be incorporated into the Title V operating permit through an administrative amendment at a later date, and the action will be published as a notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
Plan Approval No. 39-00006B is for the replacement of Packaging-Bottle Filler No. 2 (Bottle Filler No. 2) with a new bottle filler to fill malt beverage products. The new bottle filler is capable of filling bottles with any products without deteriorating the bottling equipment. The new Bottle Filler No. 2 will have a maximum capacity of 1,200 bottles per minute. The bottle filler will be operated 24 hours/day, 7 days /week and 8,760 hour/year.
Only VOC emissions are expected to increase due to this project. The new operational conditions will result in a higher VOC potential to emit (PTE) for the bottle filler compared to current operations. The increased filling capacity for Bottle Filler No. 2 is to allow for filler equipment flexibility only and does not increase any brewing, pasteurizing or packaging capacity at the facility. Therefore, the project will not affect production or capacity at any other sources or units at the facility. VOC emission increases related to this project will be offset by buying emissions reduction credits.
This plan approval will also approve the transfer and use of use of 55 tons of VOC Emission Reduction Credits (ERCs) for emissions offset purposes from Quad/Graphics, Inc., LLC, in Depew, New York to American Craft Brewery's facility in Breinigsville, PA in accordance with the provisions of Title 25, Chapter 127, Section 127.208. These ERCs will be used to offset de minimis VOC emission increases as required under Section 127.205(3) that have been previously permitted and those proposed for approval by PA DEP in this notice.
A review of the information submitted by the company indicates that the proposed project will meet all applicable state and Federal air quality requirements. Based upon these findings, DEP plans to approve the application and issue a permit for the facility.
The following table summarizes the VOC emissions from the new bottle line.
Sources VOC Emissions TPY Bottling line #2 16.21 The emissions of these pollutants are within all applicable emissions limitations.
In order to assure compliance with the applicable standards, DEP will place conditions in the plan approval.
The Plan Approval and Operating Permit will contain additional recordkeeping and operating restrictions designed to keep the facility operating within all applicable air quality requirements.
Copies of the application, DEP's analysis and other documents used in the evaluation of the application are available for public review during normal business hours at Air Quality Program, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711.
Any person(s) wishing to provide DEP with additional information which they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of this permit may submit the information to the address shown in the preceding paragraph. Each written comment must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed permit No.: 39-00006B and a concise statement regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to the issuance of the permit.
A public hearing may be held, if the Department of Environmental Protection, in its discretion, decides that such a hearing is warranted based on the comments received. All persons submitting comments or requesting a hearing will be notified of the decision to hold a hearing by publication in the newspaper or the Pennsylvania Bulletin or by telephone, where DEP determines such notification is sufficient. Written comments or requests for a public hearing should be directed to Raymond Kempa, P.E., Environmental Group Manager, Air Quality Program, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18701, Phone # 570-826-2511 within 30 days after publication date.

0.00 0.01 39° 43` 16" 76° 10` 56" The purpose of the project is to provide natural gas services for a proposed upgrade to the existing Wildcat Point electric generating facility located in Cecil County, Maryland. The project proposes to permanently impact 418.41 linear feet of stream channel, 1.26 acre of floodway, and 0.26 acre of wetlands. Although 0.26 acre of wetlands will be impacted through maintenance of the right-of-way, no wetland acreage loss is anticipated, and onsite replacement is not required. Peters Creek, Puddle Duck Creek and their unnamed tributaries contain naturally reproducing wild brown trout populations, and instream construction time-of-year restrictions will be implemented to avoid impacts to trout spawning.
